So I did what I do every week and I start over. This morning I got up at 4:30a and weighed myself like a good girl, didn't let the scale depress me, and went to the gym. Then I proceeded to kick my own butt until my brain was screaming. All day long I gave myself positive affirmation's and told myself that I love myself and my body and that I want to give my body the things that it needs to be fueled and not just what my mouth and taste buds want. That worked until about 4:00p and then I had a chocolate cluster dammit!
This week my goal is to go to the gym 5 times, and track my food on livestrong.com. This will get easier, this will get easier, this will get easier.
It WILL get easier!
ReplyDeleteI try to keep some sugar free candy on hand for some sweet cravings. It's not low-fat, but it has sugar alcohol in it instead of actual sugar, so it's better for us PCOS people who are borderline insulin resistant.
I used livestrong today for the first time and I really like it! I think it's terribly bothersome to track every single thing - like I had .2 servings of mushrooms and whatnot, but I did it! Thanks for recommending it, it's a lot easier than the other one Mallory and I were using in the past. Plus they have Iphone apps :)
I'm right there with you for starting over. I didn't weigh myself this morning before I drank a bunch of water, ate bkfst, and went to the gym, so I'll post my weight tomorrow.
Carrie,
ReplyDeleteI know that when I have a tough weigh in it's hard for me to keep going and in the past that's what has gotten me in trouble. I think if we just keep going, eventually we will get there.
Oh sista! I am hearing your pain as I was side by side with you through the weekend of wonderful(I mean bad...really bad)food indulgence! I too had my butt kicked at the gym. It is truly scary and amazing how quickly things go south when you quit exercising. Anyways, we are now going to be better and work harder to support each other through moments of shitty cravings! Sorry for the wordage there, but sometimes you just have to call it what it is! I'm here for ya girl! :)
